On another note, what the hell do angels really look like?

Has anyone looked into Ezekiel's visions? Rings inside rings? Wheels inside wheels?

Someone find the original hebrew/koine greek!

That's what OP pic looks like here is another artists depiction

Here is some information about astral projection. One can see in this verse, as far as the Quran is concerned, death and sleep are pretty much the same thing; a process from which you exit your body

>(39:42): It is Allah Who takes away the souls of people at the hour of their death, and takes away at the time of sleep the souls of those that have not died. Then He retains the souls of those against whom He had decreed death and returns the souls of others till an appointed time. Surely there are Signs in this for a people who reflect.“

There is also a famous story of the prophet when God apparently revealed to him about the daily prayers.

What no one realizes though is that this story is actually detailing astral projection.

Prophet Muhammad, accompanied by the Angel Gabriel, found himself transported by night on a winged horse called a Buraq, to the site of Solomon's Temple at Jerusalem, where he led a congregation of many of the earlier, long since deceased prophets in prayer. He then ascended to the heavens to meet again some of the prophets and to meet God. The Ascension, in particular, is important from the viewpoint of Muslim theology inasmuch as it was in the course of this experience that the five daily prayers were explicitly instituted, by God's ordinance, as an integral part of the Islamic Faith.

When he came back to his room it was like no time had passed at all as the drapes were still swinging from when he entered the room to lie down.

Remember that Solomon's Temple, where Al Aqsa Mosque stands now, is where the Muslims prayed towards before liberating the black cube from pagans for it to be the new House of God to which all Muslims would pray towards from then on. Probably because of this very Night Journey; as they learned to pray and then prayed towards where the prophet ascended to heaven during his astral projection. So it's pretty damn important

I think this picture you posted, and OP's picture are spot on.

I have actually seen them a few times. They look like spinning geometrical shapes, moving within each other. I think mandalas and yantras are those culture's version of representing these entities in a 2d plane. The picture I posted is what I have seen, only imagine each level of sphere moving independently.

They first appeared as flashing lights in my periphery, which I later discovered were actually beautifully intricate geometrical patterns, that were spinning extremely fast (hence the flashing) and by matching their frequency, I could connect with them.

Similar to in the movie, Enter the Void - where the camera enters lights to merge with them and switch locales. This concept is also taken from the Tibetan book of living and dying.

In these other traditions, the mandala or yantra represents the actual abode or dimensional existence of the deity it is linked to. And I must agree, I think they exist outside our 3d dimension, so connecting with them, allowed them to show me other places of existence.

To further lend weight to my idea, it is commonly thought that this is what an actual 5th dimensional entity would look like if it entered our 4d world. (Time is the 4th dimension) It wouldn't be coming from any 'direction' we could see, it'd just pop in at s single location, and be an indecipherable mess of changing blobs.

See this video for some visual introductions to the idea.
